NWTOYS 1/6 Scale Mysterious Legend Warrior (Link Breath of the Wild)

What do you think of this? Personally I like the more realistic representation of link , albeit not that accurate to the game but looks cool, especially the deluxe version which comes with a good amount of accessories.

I always look forward whenever new Zelda stuff shows up. But that sculpt...reeally hope they listen to feedback and take another look at it.
If it had the same style sculpt F4F used for their Link statue, this would be an instant PO for me.
The tailoring looks pretty spot on, they just need to make the belts with real leather.

Guess who else wants a piece of the action?

I never actually finished Breath of the Wild. I do like this look but I do prefer the more classic green outfit for Link.

The chainmail looks pretty sweet; someone should show this to Asmus!

Present toys!! I wonder of they're gonna wait until Nwtoys release theirs first so they can steal the mold

I love everything about this, except for the sculpt. I'll definitely hold off to see how the Present Toys version looks.

I like the fact that other companies are entering the fray of this franchise and the more the merrier because it promotes competition for our money. I’ll wait to see which one looks better and what they come with since I already have BOTW Medicom Link. I’m more excited for a potential traditional green outfit Link like Twilight Princess to add to my collection.

Onto this figure. I’d prefer a more game accurate Link. Maybe smaller in stature to other 1/6 scale figures. Maybe 9 or 10 inches tall. This looks way too tall for my taste. The next thing I’d say is they still can’t get the tunic right. Links tunics are longer at the sleeves and drop lower below the belt. It just seems too short.

Love the accessories and extras but for me it would just be an expensive kit bash set and not really worth the money.

That first version looks interesting just because it's sort of like a realistic version ... in terms of it being an interesting concept, but it doesn't really work in its execution. The head is still too stylized to work with the realistic "everything else" they've got going on. But it looks like a great bit of kit, hopefully they'll carry some of those parts over for a classic version of Link. Make a version that matches the Twilight Princess, or SSM, art and you've got my money.

I’ve been dying on the vine for this for years. It was like 8-9 years ago Amazon had those Medicom 1/6 Links on sale for $83 each and I grabbed 3 so I could have KC make me some custom tunics. Used to be a thread here - but that was before this was Collector Freaks - but all on board - any third party that wants to visit Hyrule well I’m there.

I know those Medicom ones are pretty old, but they still hold up pretty well. If they updated these variants they'll look dope af.

The Present Toys looks way more proportionately accurate to the character and the game.

Yeah from the silhouette it seems to be so, might be the one to go for, no rush to buy Nwtoys.

Funny that the base says Zelda Warrior.

Isn't this supposed to be in the video game section?

My only problem with Presents is the prototypes always look decent and then…




So Link could end up looking like Gollum.

 

[Mike86]

I cant really speak to Present Toys quality since I don’t own anything by them. From reviews they seem okay for third party, but there probably is some downgrade from prototype to final product.

Moved the thread to videogame collectibles forum.

Looks as a female imo. Last time I checked Link was a male

Present toys are actually recasting from original custom runs so of course it won't come out exactly 100% unless they cast the original right.
